@ponagathos The Honey Stingers are good, but they are not a proper stroop. They are great for some calories during a a ride as they don’t take up too much space in a jersey pocket. These are the kind that go with hot coffee on a cold morning.
@1DisabledWarVet, @Badpookey
Thanks for the input. I was not a fan of the Honey Stinger waffles so likely will not like these unless they are much better. Pass for me, unless they were offering much less at a much smaller price to try them out.
I fell for those coconut marshmallows and they are pretty bad. Likely have 11 bags going into the garbage.

Still got the Chocolate Stroops, or I put them in the fridge, and like my Bananas, they turned a brown odd looking color & no telling how old they are!! I know my '69,Dodge Charger was brand new & the Yardbirds were still together,…
My wife, Ingrid, who is Dutch, keeps correcting me on the pronunciation of stroopwafles. You gotta kind of stutter the S-T-R followed by roop, kinda rimes with rope combined with hoop. SttRope-waffel. But no, so far she is not warming to gifting these to all our family.
@Joedetroit My wife is Dutch also, and I generally fail in my lessons on proper pronunciation, though I think I do Stroopwafel OK now. The one that makes her and relatives always laugh at me is my attempt at “Keukenhof,” the big tourist garden/flower park South of Amsterdam.
@pmarin I always fail at lessons on proper pronunciation however I never fail in getting some laughs trying. Kind of talking like Yogurt in Spaceballs.
FYI - These aren’t as an insane deal as the amazon price would lead you to believe, this pack sells for $39 at the manufacturer website. Only saving $10, but still good I guess.
@carlosps More than half of all my relatives are Dutch (well, Friesian): my maternal grandparents & all seven of their kids emigrated to the States in the late 40s. Things were still relatively grim in Holland at that time after WWII.
Hi. Dec. 3, 2021 -I thought I bought 9 packs of the stroopwafels, 8 wafels to a pack. I received 11 packs. Now, just this minute I received another HUGE box of Stroopwafels, 16 packs, 8 stroopwafels to a pack. I hope this is not a membership to automatically buy a thousand stroopwafels every 3 weeks. If it is, “STOP”. At this point, what do I do with these 128 stroopwafels that I HOPE I didn’t pay for? I’ve given away most of my original order, except what I wanted for us, but what do I do with these 128 stroopwafels? I don’t have that many neighbors.
MEH - I was giving you credit for shipping me 2 orders of these STROOPWAFELS - A TOTAL OF 128 WAFELS, which was way over the top, until I checked my credit card bill, where I found I was charged $87.00. I thought I ordered $29’s worth. Anyway, what’s done is done. I’ll donate them to St. Mary’s Food bank. They can use them, I’m sure. (By the way, they’re not BIG, and they’re not that good).
Mine were just delivered on 1/5/22, a little too late for Christmas or New Year’s gifts. I think they were held up by my local post office - anyone else experience this?

Stroop! There it is!
I’ve got regular stroop, mini stroop, big stroop, but I don’t have holiday box stroop. You got me.
/giphy terrific-yummy-unity
@awk, You mean we can eat the boxes too,…they’re Eatable¿? Well, Doggie!! Who knew?
Anyone know how these compare to the Honey Stinger brand waffles?
@ponagathos, Yeah,…they all taste the same, only the names & the expiration dates are different!!

@Badpookey @ponagathos Love Honey Stingers on a hot summer ride in the woods. They seem to taste best at Santos.
I haven’t finished the last batch yet. Too much stroop would be afel.
@werehatrack That’s afel, have a star.
@blaineg @werehatrack
So I bet you’re not a fan of felafel?

OH MY GOD THEY CRUSHED GLEN WITH A STROOPWAFEL TOPPED COFFEE MUG!!!
I really didn’t look too closely but are these things decorated?
@bugger
Nope. Just in a Holiday Box.
@bugger @werehatrack Yeah, I was about to click, when I saw that. Then I figured out they were not decorated out of the box.
OK, OK I bought a batch. What the hell can’t hurt to hand out nine freaking boxes of Xmas boxes stupinfuckinwaffles
I unironically love sugar cookies and this assault on them cannot stand!
@PooltoyWolf, This Too Shall Pass!!
@PooltoyWolf I agree. Someone apparently has never had a good sugar cookie.
@Citymars @PooltoyWolf
Yeah, if anyone did that here, I’d boot them outta the house!
@Citymars @Kyeh They’d be lucky not to follow those cookies into the fire!
WHY ???
Who keeps buying these? You owe the mafia? “It fell off da truck”

Hopefully these are individually wrapped. I like these for bike rides, but don’t really want to bring an 8 pack of them with me.
@SoCalChrisW Based on the packaging I’m almost certain each box is one bag with 8 wafels stacked together.

@damcoole I followed your link, found another good reason to buy this deal, Stroopwafel bonbons, here’s the recipe - https://www.stroopwafels.com/us/recipes/stroopwafel-bonbons/
if you you are a first time customer, there’s $10 discount BUT you have to spend at least $50.

Just bought some on black Friday, jokingly asked spouse if we needed more.
A very loud YES was the response.
So if you are wondering who keeps buying these - hi.
/giphy eventual-golden-winter
Excited for these!
too bad I’m already fat, otherwise I’d totally get these
These will be handy as little gifts for those I inexplicably forget about. Or maybe “explicably” because the holidays can be stressful.
Stroooooooop!
I don’t need any more stroop but the neighbors do, even if they don’t know it yet.

@wernerja Do you have a local food bank? They’d probably love to be able to include a treat for people for the holidays.
